ear rings, nose pieces and the ears studs at different levels, baju bands and
kamar bands, even our feet are not left behind. The traditional ‘payal’ has been
seen since ages and a must for every woman, especially married woman in India
still consider this as symbol of marital status as also in Egyptians as an important jewellery piece.

Ankle bracelet or ankle chains have changed in designs and patterns. Anklets have shown a drastic
transformation from the traditional payal madein silver as a singlelayer or
double layers with round beadsfor the
beautiful music they make while walking. Ghungroos were an important part of the
anklet then and today this has been replaced with pearls, gemstones and
different semi precious stones. Buying anklets is important as every other
jewellery is worn above the body and seen easily by us so we care for this, but
anklets go to our feet and we need a strong jewellery piece with delicate
design for here.

Jewellery Silver and Gold with Gem Stones

Anklets sizes vary and one must try out wearing the anklet before buying it. This is very important as the tight fitting or loose fitting anklet will not do. Too loose and it will fall out and too tight does not look graceful, a right best anklet just falls gracefully around your ankles and does not touch the skin too tight.
While buying ankles consider your skin type and any allergies you have for any metal. Silver , German silver, sterling silver has universal appeal and the gold plated ankles are a hit with everyone. Artificial metals and mixture of metals used in jewellery can some times bring allergic reactions like skin reddening or skin rash, and also damage the clothes as in combination with body sweat and water.
Plastic, acrylic and also other materials are used to make anklets.
Too many loose hanging stones or pearls will hinder in your walk, so choose an appropriate anklet for the occasion. Short dress or three fourth length dresses and you can highlight your anklet but with long flowing dresses and sarees be careful while selecting too many hanging stones as they may get stuck in the clothes or fall off due to friction with the clothes while walking.

Delicate patterns look very good on any feet and make the anklet a style statement in any occasion and any group. Do not select too heavy metal for anklets as the weight of your footwear and this piece of jewellery will take its toll on your feet and they will ache and pain. Anklets go well with even western dresses and a single pearl or gemstone anklet can highlight any formal attire also and give a trendy look.
